Garbage Collector question?

[sriharis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Shrihari.S.C)]

Hi Yogesh,
	The System.gc() is a low priority thread that cleans those set of objects
that are not from the primordial class loader , but from the custom class
loader and those which has been assigned null. But considering the fact that
the class contains too many objects that have been temporarily created
because of some intermediate computation and have not been assigned null,
before which the computation is exited, the System.gc() siezes to work
because of improper set of unreferenced objects to be deallocated. What do u
think can be set of other options left out to see this problem ?
			Regards
